This lets us know that you’re open to receiving invitations to sessions like interviews, usability studies, surveys, and more. You will typically only receive a few invitations a year (via email), and these will include all the details you need to know about the study so you can decide whether you want to participate or not.

Who will I talk to?

A variety of people at Stack Overflow conduct research, including product managers, product designers, data scientists, and marketing managers.
